The establishment of sewage farm
of 6OOO or 10000 acres would call into
r.onisit on the construction OF fruit fac
to,ies of various kinds, such as canneries,
marmalade works, pickle factories and
dfss:cating establishments. Although
th;s section is known as a notable place
for fruit, there is not enough small iruit
raised here for home use in families and
factories. An addition of the products
of a sewage farm is just what is needed
at the present time in Los Angeles to
supply the growing needs of the city.

Nickel.

Nickel Is an elementary metal. 1t
was 1rst obtained as a metal about 1751
in Germany. But the ore had been
long known to miners, who called it
Kupfer nickel, or Old Nick's copper,
because, though 1t looked like copper
ore, no copper could be obtained from
it. When pure. nickel is silvery white,
and does not oxidize or tarnIsh in the
air. 1t can easily be hammered out into
thin sheets or drawn into wire it is
stronger than Iron, aad almos: as hard
to melt. Its chief use is for plating
Other metals, as it gives them beauti-
full, silverlike surface which is quite
easily kept from rusting. 1t is also
used In alloys. German silver Il made
by taking one part nickeI, one part zinc,
and two parts copper. Our Eve and
three cent pieces are made Of three
parts copper and one part nickel. Nickel
Is found In many parts of the world, but
the principal mines are in Russia, Ger
many, Sweden, Austria, England and
Scotland. In this country it is found in
the States Of Pennsylvania and Connect

Are Animals Happy ]

Are animals mentally happy ?" asks
Mr.. B. Cariill in the Nineteenth Century.
He answers that he thinks they are.
We may not be able to get a direct an
swer in words from the animal world To
the question lis life worth livinsf" he
says, but we get an answer in sounds
and signs which. on all ordinary rules
of Interpretation, are equally decisive
IN the affirmative. Animals have 10
motive fer dissimu.stion; if they appear
happy they probably are, If they sound
happy they probably are. and half An
hour OF q summers evening spent in
seclusion near rabbit warren wonld
probably convince sny one that in
capacity, as in opportunity, for enjoy
ments, rabbits still deserved Uncle
Remus' description, more saner than
some folks" There is of course, no
doubt that animals are influenced by
many of the sentiments which make or
mar the happiness oil human beings,
sociableness mutual attachment, and
the like; and on the other hand, jealousy.
hatred, aud revenge. Still. as Mr..
Carlill remarks, all forboding, all ankle
ty, all care, ali serious thought for the
morrow. which constitutes. three fonrths
Of human misery, is to animals absolute
ly upknowable; and Of the remaining
quarter, how much is there which
is purely the product Of civilization.
and from which animals, eqIal-
ly with the the lower savages, are also
freel Care, Mr.. Carl:ll might have sd-
ded, is the penalty of mans higher
nature, but that care ia vastly more than
compensated by the enjoyments and the
hopes of futurity which that higher Da

An "Arabian Nights" Story Matched.

Giles Busby, Toledo fshmonger,
was cleaning a white fish the other day,
and in the larger intestines OF the fish
he found diamond ring. The ring
had engraved upon its inner surface
j. A. B., Chicago. 49," Busby for
warded the ring 20 the Chief of Police
Of that city. Mrs. Julia A. Lennon
identified and recovered the ring. She
tells an interesting story of its loss. In
1869 she, as Miss Bennett, became en-
gagged to Mr.. Lennon, and he gave her
this diamond ring, for which be paid
$45O. Upon their bridal trip in 1871,
Mrs. Lennon lost this ring while she
was washing her hands in the toilet
room of the Pullman car the ring slipped
from her finger and dropped through
the waste pipe. AS the train happened
to be crossing the bridge over the St.
Lawrence river, near Montreal, just at
that time, the bereaved bride had no
hopes Of recovering the ring. There
are no white fish in the st. Lawrence
and the theory is that a small fish
seized upon the ring, and at some future
time this small fish, while cruising
about the lakes, fell prey to the white
fish in which the long lost ring was dis
covered. Mr.. Busby, the Toledo Ssh
monger, received a check for 500 from
Mr.. Lennon for his honesty.

Old SIare-HuntinE Bleodhounds.

''Bloodhounds are seldom found in
the company OF Uncle Toms Cabin
troupes, " said an old.time Lower Mis-
sissippI steamboat captain. Before
the War in the old slavery days, l was
very familiar with those hounds, their
training and method or work. Dogs
representing them on the dramatic
stage are of heavier build and different
species. BIoodhounds are larger and
more compsct than ordinary hounds,
with hair straight and sleek as that OF
the finest race horse, colored between
yellow and brown, short cared, rather
long nosed and built for scenting, quick
action and speed. They can take a
scent three days old aud run it down.
Their speed is about equal to and their
endurance much greater than the grey
hound. Their bark resembles neither
that of bulldog, cur, nor hound, but
is yelp like VOLTS. Their bite is a
wolf-llke snap, not the hold-fast g:ip OF
OF a bulldog. The 'catch-dog' used in
in slavery times on Southern plant ations
capturing runaway negroes looked like
cross between d Newfoundland and
bull OF large and powerful build. I'll
describe you a negro hunt q common
enough occurrence before the war:
The overseer, or hunter, mounts a fleet
horse, holds his catch dog by a chain
and turns loose the hounds. Circling
round, they strike the scent and soon
line of, their fast receedlng yelps mark
ing the rapidity of the chase. The
horseman follows over fences, through
timber and swamp, as best he can, hold
ing his catch dog in leash Hounds
sighting the negro divide, FORM semi
circle and rapidly draw it into a large
circle around him. AS the pursued
wretch runs the dogs in front of him
fall back, but preserve their equi distant
place in the circle which they are
gradually closing. On nearing him
they snap at his legs, but do not spring
at his throat. AS the circle narrows
the hunter arrives. The ominous
sounds of ;he chains rattle, like the
warning note of the serpent. strikes the
negro's ear. The catch dog springs
upon the exhausted runaway and holds
him. Hounds are dubbed away, the
fugitive secured, dogs 'leasheG' and the
hunt is over"

Kindness TO Animals.

There is nothing that pays farmers so
well as kindness to animals, and that,
too without any expense. All kinds OF
barnyard stock appreciate 1t. Kindness
towards these begets kindness in re-
turn toward them who exercise 1t. II
is a very rare thing for horses to be-
come ba!ky for one who treats them
with uniform Kindness. 1t is little or
no trouble TO stall cattle or milk young
COWS that have been kindly handled.
Since colts have been more kindly
treated, we hear less about breaking
colts. There is scarcely any limit to
the teachableness of horses, IL done in a
kind manner.
Live stock that are manipulated kind
Iy ore less breachy farmers, therefore,
save money by having such stock, as
fences do not need to be so expensive.
The danger Of being hurt by hand
ling stock that has been kindly dealt
with, is very slight. 'Tis moral duty
to be kind TO inferior animals as we'll as
20 man the Consciousness of being so
j. worth something to the possessor of
It.
Punishment on any account, to man or
beast, does more harm than good, espec,
lally if the viciousness comes by ipheri-
tance, as much of it does. Then it is
morally wrong. In relation to inferior
animals as well as man, the best policy
Is to overcome evil with good.
IL IS real pleasure to be about live
stock that are kindly disposed to us.
The inferior animals appreciate kindness
to them as much or nearly SO, as man
does to him, by man.
